from Ottawa. Ont, says: The sen5a-
,ioD which was caused at the capital OF
lie Dominion over the startling revela-
tjons made within the past few days ast)
tie traffic IN young girls OF from twelve
to fourteen. in which q number OF pro-
minent citizens az well as several lead
ing politicians are implicated, promises
to develop into n scandal even greater
than that exposed recently 10y the PdU-
D0H Gd-,Hc. One scandal following
another 50 closely in the metropolitan
CITY has incensed the citizens generally.
Last night meeting was held under
the auspices OF the Society for the Pre-
vcntion oi Cruelty, with view to de-
yisirg some means by which the great
stain on the capitals good name might
bc removed. Special legislation, Il
was decided, would be necessary to
attain that end, and the matter must.
therefore. become the subjcc; OF SPECIAL
leci.laiion at the next session OF Pariia-
mcnt before any law can De enacted to
reach the cuIprits t possible, owing
TO the fact that the chief Of police has
evidence in his possession which would
criminate several prominent politicians
if brought into court, that such a mea-
sure if introduced in Parliament would
be defeated, guilty members OF the
Senate and House OF Commons, whose
names are freely mentioned, fearing
that their Endorsement OF such mea-
sure and subsequent Investigation
would criminate themselves.
